someone 说:
It has been more than one year, my English is still bad
someone 说:
why is that?
笑来 说:
:) 读书读的少。我的意思是,读书的时候,要分为两步:1)理解知识;2) 重新阅读,当作语文教材。
笑来 说:
第二步,大多数人几乎不做。要多查词典,多写笔记。甚至,强迫自己写文章,随笔,什么的。
笑来 说:
另外,多听新闻,看电影,不停地关注其中你不曾了解的部分,记下来,反复练习。
someone 说:
你的意思是多读几遍课本吗?
笑来 说:
强迫自己,每天都花时间,把接触到的各种语言环境当作 语文课。
someone 说:
还要记下来?对了,我从来不记。是因为这个吗?
笑来 说:
说起来容易做起来难,我自己的口语也差了。
笑来 说:
要记下来的。这个最重要了。
someone 说:
记到本子上面?
笑来 说:
对。比如,你听到人家说:“If my memory serves, ….”你就要记下来,相当于“如果我没记错的话,……”
笑来 说:
这是不能逐字翻译的。于是,需要记录。常常拿出来看,才行的。
someone 说:
哦。
笑来 说:
并且,要关注句群。
someone 说:
句群?
笑来 说:
Since …. is not valid, there must be a reason that….这样的句式,其实生活中特别常用的。
笑来 说:
中国学生英文不好,是因为,我们在国内,接受的是“以单词为中心的英文教育”
someone 说:
有时候他们外国人会说很长的一段话,我听着很有道理,自己却不会说
笑来 说:
:) 所以要练习啊。
笑来 说:
你可以这样练。
笑来 说:
看一段文章之后,尝试着复述。或者,干脆就像给别人讲课一样,备课。然后给自己讲。
笑来 说:
相信我,在美国四年,最重要的是语言学习。
someone 说:
可是文章跟口语不一样啊
笑来 说:
一样的。
笑来 说:
你是读书的人,所以,你的口语,和那些初中毕业的人是不一样的。
someone 说:
有的人来国外10几年英语还是不好,我很怕变成他们那样
笑来 说:
当然了,那样的人是大多数。
someone 说:
那我的口语跟写作语言一样的话会不会被人笑啊?
笑来 说:
不会的。嘲笑你的人都是sb。
someone 说:
哈哈。
笑来 说:
语言上,我们就像小孩儿一样,走路蹒跚,是正常的。
笑来 说:
奶奶的,谁敢嘲笑我们,你愤怒给他看。嘿嘿。
someone 说:
我怎么愤怒阿?
someone 说:
嘿嘿。
笑来 说:
对着镜子练习一下。练习看外星人的表情。
someone 说:
那是恐惧的表情
笑来 说:
不是,就是有点接近城里人看到土鳖那种表情(尽管我鄙视这种观念,但这种表情有的时候有用)。
笑来 说:
不是恐惧,而是,鄙视——丫你怎么这么没见过世面呢?
someone 说:
哈哈。
笑来 说:
或者,你想象一下这个。北京的出租车起步价格10元钱。你呢,上车之后,开了不远,要求下车,然后拿出5元钱给司机。你想象一下司机会用什么样的眼神看你?
笑来 说:
就是这种眼神。
someone 说:
知道了,那被鄙视的人会怎样想呢?
笑来 说:
顿时就觉得自己矮了一截——让丫自卑。
someone 说:
被鄙视的人肯定很不爽,遇到特别可恶的人才能用这招……
笑来 说:
这个要你自己把握了哈。

[…] 九零后的人,现在最小的已经在上小学,最大的已经可能高中毕业——都是有阅读能力的人了。平时多看点书,多几点笔记。谁要是说“你们九零后怎么怎么样……”,你就直接离开别理他。要是你心情不好,那就直盯着他的眼睛,一字一顿、吐字清晰地说给他听:“你有点傻吧?发育不健全?”如果,你想增加点效果,多给自己带来一点扭曲但又正常的愉悦,不妨练习一下“看外星人的表情”,用在这个场景里。 […]

” If my memory serves,…”
老师写成了:
“If my memory servers, ….”

Very interesting.
A minor thing: if my memory serves me, …
You cannot do w/out “me.”
BTW, often times people say “if my memory serves me correctly/well/right, …”

to Nancy: 不一定非要把serve当作vt.使用的;serve也可以是vi.。尽管确实更多的人确实常说“if my memory serves me correctly/well/right, …”。其实,“If my memory serves, …”是电影哈利波特中的一句台词。我现在想不起来到底是哪一集里面的了——是图书馆里的一个老头对哈利波特说的话。BBC上有一篇文章也是这么写的

They were a group of yearling steers if my memory serves, although I couldn’t tell you if they were mine or his – just that they were missing, presumed to have got into a third and forth parties’ grounds and we were helping each other track them down.

A lot of people are down on network marketing businesses (also know as multi-level marketing or MLM), but I抎 like to give you 7 reasons why a network marketing business is the best kind of business to own.1. Your chances for success are better in network marketing.Yes, some people fail at it. In MLM or network marketing, you will often find that 20% of the people are making 80% of the money. Do you know what? That is exactly the same as the church I belong to– 20% of the people who attend are actively involved and do 80% of the work that needs to be done.I抦 not surprised that it is similar in MLM. People are people. Some of the people who fail at network marketing are not motivated, some aren抰 cut out for self employment, some are in the wrong company for them, and some are just not properly trained. But a motivated and trained person in a good company has a great chance of succeeding in their business.On the other hand, if you start a 搕raditional?business your odds of success are much lower. According to the SBA, at least 50% of small businesses fail in their first year and 95% fail within the first five years. So, after 5 years of 12 hour days, in debt up to your eyeballs, you only have a 5% chance of succeeding. For some reason that just doesn抰 do it for me.2. The costs are much less to get into a network marketing business.Most network marketing companies ask for a monthly minimum order to keep an ac…
